all day yesterday. When Loretta came to bed last night she whispered, you awake? I said sorta. She says, I was looking at your weekly Sunday though Saturday pill arranger. You missed taking your blood pressure pills for the last three days. I said, omg you are right. I been more concerned about the pills that are fighting off my pneumonia, I completely forgot about my other pills. I would be lost without her.

Eventually I'm going to get over this.

Good Morning Breakfast Club 🌞

of ice water, and thought that little fridge in the garage has cans of pop chilled down. So I went out looking, and found me a can of Lemon Lime Soda. Poured it into a glass, and added a few ice cubes. That's what I been needing. Really hitting the spot.

medications, Doxycycline, and Amoxicillin. They gave an inhaler to help me breath. I think it's the same thing as people with asthma use. It work last night when I was trying to get some sleep.
